Additional Flu Shot Event — ONE DAY ONLY — Monday Sept. 10th, 2018

Additional Walk-In Flu Shot Event

This Monday September 10th, 2018, we will be offering Flu Shots all day. No appointment needed! Just walk-in during the time specified below.

WHEN: MONDAY SEPTEMBER, 10TH, 2018

(THIS DAY ONLY!)

TIME: 9:30AM TO 4:00PM

**PLEASE FOLLOW THE SIGNS TO USE THE SIDE ENTRANCE WHEN COMING FOR THE WALK-IN FLU SHOT EVENT.**

PATIENTS: Insurance will be billed.

PARENTS: $35.00, due at time of service; Parents choosing to obtain their own flu vaccines at our office do so with the acknowledgement that they have opted to do so outside of their insurance coverage. We are unable to engage in insurance billing, documentation or refunds. A receipt will be given upon request for FLEX plans or for personal records. We will not be offering a receipt for insurance reimbursement.

NOTE: Injectable flu vaccine will be the primary recommended form of flu vaccine this year. The live-virus nasal flu vaccine (FluMist) has been reformulated and is available this season. However, the CDC and AAP recommend children receive the injectable form of the vaccine, which was shown to be more consistently effective. For those children who would otherwise receive no flu vaccine, the AAP says the nasal spray vaccine can be given as a last resort. The nasal spray vaccine is not appropriate for children under 2 years or children with chronic medical conditions like asthma. With these recommendations by the CDC and AAP, we will have both injectable Vaccine and FluMist available this year, but will recommend the injectable vaccine for most individuals. Additional details are available on our website or by clicking here.

***Only the injectable vaccine is available at this time. We do not currently have FluMist available.***

IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ATTEND THIS EVENT, WE WILL STILL CONTINUE TO HOLD OUR ALL DAY FLU SHOT DAYS ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY’S FROM 8:00AM TO 4:30PM, NOW THRU DEC. 20th, 2018, OR WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.
